We’ve compiled a list of our favorite science jokes. Guaranteed to make you laugh – or at least smile – or maybe cringe. Because laughter is still good medicine – especially during challenging times.

- A neutron walks into a bar and orders a drink. Upon being asked the price, the bartender responded, “For you? No charge.”
- (A little darker but still chemically accurate.) Two chemists walk into a bar. The first chemist says to the bartender, “I’ll have some H2O.” The bartender hands him a filled glass, and the chemist takes a swig and smiles. The second chemist then says to the bartender, “I’ll have an H2O too!” The bartender hands the second chemist a filled glass, the chemist takes a swig, and promptly dies.
And four bonus one liners to use at your own discretion.
